Hello everyone! I'm not sure if I have previously introducted myself or not because I think I also suffer from Alzheimer's these days, so I thought I would do it again...or for the first time. I have yet to figure out how to view all of my previous posts here, which is a bit annoying because now I'll obsess over it for days, but such is life.
I'm a married woman raising two children on the spectrum. One, like me, was recently diagnosed as a mild Aspie. She is a little less mild because she has a lot of social awkwardness and has the physical clumsiness along with the monotone speech. My son, whom we adopted a year ago, had a diagnosis of severe autism until this year and he has been diagnosed now with Asperger's. He's come to the perfect home!
While at the mild end of the spectrum, it is nice to have found a place where I can quit being so NT for awhile. My interests include electronic gadgets and reading non-fiction/studying whatever my current passion happens to be at the time. I embrace my uniqueness, which was definitely inherited from my obviously Aspie (yet undiagnosed) father. If I've already introduced myself previously, I apologize for being so redundant.
